• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    SHORTEE ANTENNAS

    Curious to know if anyone has tried the Shortee Antenna from ESI. And if so, is it just a screw off the old and screw in the new? Or could I just purchase any type of short antenna from a motorcycle shop?? We've been trailing our RT and the tall antenna gets caught up in the door of the...

    bad throttle body

    For what it's worth, the tech who replaced my throttle body on my 2011 RT said the first two upgrades weren't successful at eliminating the problem, but the latest and third upgrade has taken care of the problem. I was concerned about hearing that the replaced throttle body's were going bad again.

    EASY CHECK FOR CODES

    Met an interesting Spyder Tech who fixed my RT while on vacation. (throttle body failure). He showed me an easy way to check for a code if something goes wrong with your Spyder and you want to see if it threw any codes. He said it's like Crtl-Alt-Delete on your computer. At the same time, you...

    PAIN IN THE DIPSTICK I don't know why it's such a hassle, but seems like whenever I check it, there is no defining level line on dipstick. It's either splattered all over the stick or nothing. I do as the Manuel says, at least 4/5 bars on temp, turn off, turn back on for thirty seconds. Have...
